"Then how did the city god get his position?" Lin Haoming asked.
Hexiangu continued to explain patiently: "The City God is also under the control of the Dragon King, but it is not the River Dragon King, but the Zhenguo Shenlong of Jingguo. If the City God dies, the Dragon King will also send people to investigate, but this matter was originally their fault. , investigate clearly, and nothing will happen to you or me. At most, a new city god will come out here."
Lin Haoming knew little about this world. Unexpectedly, the more he talked, the more curious Lin Haoming became, so he asked: "Does every country have a dragon that governs the country?"
"Of course." He Xiangu admitted.
"In this case, why did the Ming Kingdom's Zhenguo Shenlong not control the demons and ghosts in the Ming Kingdom, causing these demons to run rampant?" Lin Haoming asked.
He Xiangu seemed to be used to Lin Haoming being unclear about these things, so she continued to explain: "When a country declines, the king cannot manage the various places. The same is true for the dragon that governs the country. There are temples for the country in every country, and the king personally worships and offers incense, so the dragon can control the country. Subdue all directions, but if a country completely declines, it will also be swallowed up by other dragons who want it. The dragon that holds the country is strong due to the destiny of the country, but also declines or even dies due to the destiny of the country."
"According to you, the Dragon King is the master of this world?" Lin Haoming asked.
"It's almost like this. There are dragon kings in Mingchuan and mountains, and there are dragon kings in all countries. There are sea dragon kings in the sea, river dragon kings in rivers, and lake dragon kings in lakes. Taikang Mountain is also a big mountain. The original mountain god also wanted to become a dragon king, so he was involved. During the war between the two countries, in the end, they fell between heaven and earth because of the war." He Xiangu knew a lot and said it out.
"So, can't Caiyi also become the Dragon King?" Lin Haoming asked. In Lin Haoming's view, it is natural for snakes to turn into dragons and dragons to turn into dragons.
"This? Do you know how much incense is needed to become the Dragon King and inherit the destiny of heaven and earth?" He Xiangu asked back, seeming to be questioning Lin Haoming's confusion.
"How many are needed?" Lin Haoming asked.
"At least the five states around Taikang Mountain must be worshiped, and it will not only be a day or two, but at least a hundred years, so even if you really become a god, you will no longer be alive on that day." He Xiangu said.
"I'm gone? Can't people become immortals and gods?" Lin Haoming asked with a smile.
"You want to become a human being?" He Xiangu was shocked.
Lin Haoming saw her like this, it seemed that this so-called immortal still existed.
So Lin Haoming continued to ask: "Are there no immortals or sects of immortals in this world?"
Regarding Lin Haoming's words, He Xiangu only found it unbelievable. She stared at Lin Haoming carefully for a while and then said: "Humans are the spirit of all things, and they are naturally enlightened. Because of this, it is harder to become a human immortal than ordinary mountain spirits and water monsters." If there are many, human beings and immortals must be formed by the luck of the air, follow the natural way, and understand the origin of heaven and earth."
Listening to her words, Lin Haoming was sure that He Xiangu was not very clear about this, but Lin Haoming had some ideas, especially considering the origin of this world. What he lacked most at the moment was magic skills and not anything else. As long as he can mobilize his own power, he should be a human immortal.
This thought made Lin Haoming ask: "Do you have any other tricks that can be used to exert magic power?"
"What other methods do I have? Some of my methods come from the old toad. Ordinary people can only use their own energy to use magic. If I had it, I wouldn't have done that just now." He Xiangu said with a wry smile.
Lin Haoming nodded and said nothing more. He turned to look at Hua Caiyi and asked, "Do you want to be the Dragon King or the River God?"
"Can I become the Dragon King if I become the River God?" Hua Caiyi asked.
"It can't be said that there is no such thing. There are generally two situations. One is that the old Dragon King has an accident, and you can stand out. The other is that the Dragon King in another place has an accident. The old Dragon King goes to that place, and you take over. ." He Xiangu said thoughtfully.
Lin Haoming was a little surprised when he heard this and said: "Can't I take over if there is an accident somewhere else?"
"I know, anyway, I don't know of such a precedent, and the Dragon King of Taikang Mountain died thirty years ago. If possible, there should have been a new Dragon King long ago. I think this has something to do with the way of heaven." He Xiangu herself said Not sure.
Lin Haoming thought that this should be the case, so he looked at Hua Caiyi and asked, "How do you choose?"
"I still won't leave Mount Taikang." Hua Caiyi looked around and seemed to have made the decision after some struggle.
This decision made He Xiangu also smile bitterly and said: "Hey, if you do this, I'm afraid I have no choice but to move. Fortunately, Shengjing River originally passed through the valley from Taikang Mountain, exited Taikang Mountain and entered Huangzhou. He Xiangu can still continue to be a woman, I am willing to pass on the incense to the mountain god, I just need to be able to borrow the method when necessary."
"I'm going to achieve the status of a god in the next few years. I'm afraid I won't be able to lend you my magic. Besides, I also have a husband. Am I making a contract with you?" Hua Caiyi seemed a little reluctant.
"Your husband is not an ordinary person. He may not need to borrow Dharma at all, and spreading incense for you will delay his practice. I think you have understood that he also wants to become a human being. Once he appears, you will We have become a couple of gods and immortals, don't you want your husband to be with you for a long time?" He Xiangu said directly.
Upon hearing this, Hua Caiyi glanced at Lin Haoming and agreed without any hesitation: "Okay, in this case I will make a contract with you, but I won't be able to lend you my power for the first three years. After that, you can't borrow it for one year." More than three times.”
"I know this. When I am He Xiangu, I don't borrow magic every time. Most of the time it's just ordinary fortune telling." He Xiangu was also overjoyed to see her agree.
Lin Haoming could also see that this He Xiangu was largely for her own future. After all, if she was not a fairy, she would probably have to marry. Although she was not bad looking, no one might dare to marry, and once she married, she would be gone. With her current status, this is probably unacceptable to He Xiangu.
Lin Haoming did not refuse this matter, but at the moment He Xiangu was in frail health and Hua Caiyi still needed to stabilize her condition, so she had not signed a contract for the time being.
Because he still had to go back to Che's house, He Xiangu couldn't recuperate here, so Lin Haoming decided to send He Xiangu out first, and then went to Che's house to report the news. After all, he had been out for so long.
After bidding farewell to Hua Caiyi, Lin Haoming left with Hexiangu. Hexiangu was much stronger than the average person and was not seriously ill, but she couldn't travel through mountains and rivers. Except in the valley, Lin Haoming could only carry her on his back. , I didn’t put it down until I reached the entrance of the mountain village where Wuniu lived before. However, this world still emphasizes the difference between men and women. It would be bad if others saw it. There are not many scruples between myself and He Xiangu.
